Praise for a North Carolina Poet.
Wilmington Star.l

For thirty years this writer has been
a reader of Theo. H. Hills verse and
during that time he has written no lit
tie concerning it. We have never
doubted as to his being a recipient of
the diOine aDHatas and have through
the decades held him to be true poet
the best by odds that our State has
given birth to. He is one of the best
of the living Southern band who en-
ploy verse as the vehicle of thought.
We refer to him now because of his re-
cognition in an article on Overlooked
Southern Writer'S in the able, scholar
ly Philadelphia american, prepared
by Mr. Edwin r. Chaplin. He selects
four writer's for discussion, namely
James A. Harrison, native of Mis-
sissippi; Lillian K. Messenger, all
Alabamian 1'heophilus H. Hill, a
North Carolinian, and Lizette W
Reese, a Marylander. Referring to
Mr.. Hills " Passion Flower and Other
Poems" the critic says:
at is certain that there is no more
poetry, if there be more art, within ZIG
pages of any other American poets
book than | find in this"

THERE is no conceivable argument

l. Does 1t seem expensive? To talk of
the expense" of lite assurance, as though
the Pr emium paid in We're lost, is great
improprie. y in the use OF language. 1t
is no more all ''expense' than a deposit
in bank. But call it what you will,
how little is required to keep up a life
policy, com pared with what is foolishiy,
not to say ln(ariOatSiy, expended by al
most every uody. And what family is
there which can not spare from their in
come the small matter of fifty cents or a
dollar a week, to keep up a policy?
What family ought not to DO it. Z?

This Is the end, then, Of striving this is
What comes Of il all
Darkness and foes just behind one before
an impossible wall.
What does it matter how staunchly one may
have battled for truth
When with his weapons all broken he sits

What did it profit in past years that one
did tht. best that he knew,
When in tle gloom of the present virtue

WHY SHOULD one fight any longer when
nothing remains but defeat?
Surely such labor were useless and idle

All but the soul that is faithful KNOWS IL

Knows it il good to have acted, whatever
the doing has brought.
This Is the crown of the conflict, this the
reward of all strife
Faith in ones self and ones motives, no

Flesh may he bruised and defeated, but

Spirit is always triumphant, whatever

In Brief, and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver
is misery. Indigestion is foe to good
nature.
The human digestive apparatus is one of
the most complicated and wonderful things
in existence. 1t is easily put out of order
Greasy food, tough food. sloppy food,
bad cookery, mental worry, late hours,
irregular habits, and many otNer things
which ought not to be, have made the
American people nation of dysp utits.
But Green's August Flower has done a
wonderful work in reforming this Sad bust
ness and making the American people so
healthy that they can enjoy their meals and
be happy.
Remember No Happiness without
health. But Green's August Flower brings
health and happiness to the dyspeptic.

A Sensational Statement Headed Off.
SHERMAN FOR PRESIDENT.

Ex-Congressman Townsend Thinks Ohio
VIII BE Solid for His Nomination.
lpeciaI to rue Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON. April 'l5.-Ex-Congressman
Amos Townsend. of Cleveland. is here for few
days, and, like all other Ohio Republicans who
have lately visited Washington, thinks that
John Sherman has a better chance for the Re-
publican nomination for President than he ever
did. He says that the men who have always
opposed Sherman and supported Blaine in Ohio
have got through with that sort of business,
and will not only consent to give Sherman a
solid delegation, hut will take hold in his inter-
est themselves. For man who has been so
long in public life, and who has had so much to
do with distribution Of patronage, he thinks
Sherman phenomenally strong, and stronger to-
day than he ever was.
Speaking of local affairs, Mr. Townsend says
that the city government of Cleveland was
captured by the Democrats because the Repub-
licans were divided. and the Labor party voted
the Democratic ticket. He thinks that Ceve-
land ia still Republican city on fair test, but
there is SO much ambition and 80 much leader
ship among the Republicans that they beat
themselves. He is inclined to think that few
frst.class funerals would do the party good in
that neighbornood.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-The grounds south
of the Presidents mansion have been turned
over by the War Department to the national
drill committee, and the erection of fences and
other preparations needed to carry out the drill
programme will be commenced at once. The
monument grounds, adjoining the White Lot,
will also be put in condition for camp.
The following dispatch was received at drill
headquarters this evening, from Chicago
ITO 7. G. DeLeon, Managing Secretary National
Drill.
1.-The Central Traffic Association. at their
meeting to-day, agreed to the rate of three-quar-
fers Of cent per mile travelled for military com
panies en- route to Washington. provided
twenty five or more travel on one ticket in both
directions. &C. K LORD,
&c. P A.. Baltimore & Ohio Railroad"
The Central Traffic Association includes all
the great lines leading East from Western
points, and this action settles beyond question
the fact Of the greatest military gathering ever
yet seen. 1t comes pat after yesterdays ruling
of the Interstate Commission, that the law has
no bearing against the issuance of cheap excur-
sion tickets. and causes estimates of visitors to
the drill from various points to reach nearly a
quarter of a million people.

ENGLAND AND HAYTI.

Rumor that American Naval Officer Has
Interfered in Behalf of Hayti.
New YORK, April IA special from Key
West, Fla, to the World says: ''The United
States steamer Yantic arrived here yesterday
afternoon from Port-au-P Prince Hayti. 1t is re-
ported on good authority that while at Port-au
Prince, Commander Greene positively and Off
cially forbade the English men-of-war in that
harbor to execute their threat of Selling the
Tortugas island. The report has created con-
siderable excitement here among both the Amer
lean and Spanish population. In connection
with the above it will be remembered that late
IN March it was reported from Havana that
England had demanded of Hayti the immediate
payment of 81, 100000 an old claim, or she
would seize the island of Tortugas. A day or
two after came the rumor that England had
issued an u.timatum to the effect that il the
claim was not satisfied within five days an En-
glis man of-war. then in Haytian waters,
would lombard the principal ports of the repub-
lie. All this time the American consul at Hayti
has kept the State Department at Washington
fully informed upon what was going on about
him. 1t is understood that the government will
undertake to enforce the Monroe doctrine should
any OF the European powers undertake to dis
rupt any of the neighboring republics"

progress of the work does not. of course. include
the immense amount of correspondence on all
possible phases of the subject, which the bureau
has been compelled to conduct. Colonel Mclean,
the Deputy Commissioner, received a letter yes
terday from q gentleman in Europe. inquiring
whether his several years residence abroad
would preclude him from the benefits of the
law, he having been a soldier in the Mexican war
for the requisite period of sixty days and more
Colonel Mclean has answered that such term
of foreign residence will not affect his claim
provided he is able to establish it By satisfactory
evidence. The chief difficulty in the cases of
pension claimants generally who have made
their homes in other countries since retiring
from military service consists IN establishing
their identity by the two witnesses demanded Dy
statute.
There has just been published here pamphlet
giving a complete roster of the regular and vol
unteer troops in the Mexican war from 1916 to
